At the General Meeting on October 19, 2017 in accordance with the existing constitution and by-laws, the 51 members in attendance voted to modify the constitution and by-laws to the new ones posted here (members-only link). There were no votes in opposition.

These rule changes are necessary in order for TBARC to comply with the rules defining a 501(c)(3) organization by the IRS.

The new constitution and by-laws come into effect on November 1, 2017.

Thanks to Brian AK7F and Walt NJ8G for their hard work to get these changes implemented.

Interment will be at Christ the King Lutheran Church in New Brighton, Minnesota. Memorials may be made to the University of Minnesota Institute of Technology or Hospice of the Valley.
